Imperfect

Imperfect.

What two words do you see?

"I'm" and

"Perfect."

What does that mean?

I am Perfect.

What do I know?

I AM Perfect.

Do you know what I'm not?

A model.

An actress.

An athlete. 

A genius.

Do you know what I am?

Clumsy.

Creative.

Articulate.

Strong. 

Do you know what I want?

For you to see me as I see myself.

To stop judging everyone on being unrealistically

"Perfect."

So, when you see me,

Just know what I am.

I am Perfect.

I'm Perfect.

Imperfect,

and Flawless.

In my own way.

Because you know what I'm not?

"Perfect."
